I stumbled upon this and I wonder also why those files (like
ParseException.java) are duplicated in
framework/sql/build/gen-src/javacc/org/ofbiz/sql
and
framework/base/build/gen-src/javacc/org/ofbiz/base/json/
Adam, could you enlight us?

Because that's how javacc works, it takes effort to keep it from not
generating those files.
And, those aren't the same classes, btw.
The fix for this would require changing javacc to allow for a different
exception to be thrown by the generated methods; this would then mean a
shared class
Why have our own stuff at all? There are good JSON parsers and generators
around, one of the best for automatic type conversions and such being the one
built into Groovy (JsonSlurper, JsonBuilder, JsonOutput, etc).

Does anyone know why we are using a JJ compiler to generate the JSON
classes in framework/base? It seems to me we could start off with
compiler-generated code, then improve it by hand.
